Lyla Michaels : Did you bring the plans?
Laurel Lance : About that. I have decided not to join you and your cosmic fashion tragedy that you're in cahoots with.

Anatoly Knyazev : Now, I have seen some very crazy things in my life, but adult children of Oliver Queen sitting in my bar. I hope you do not think badly of me. Last time we met, you were little, and I was on wrong side of history.
William Clayton : [speaking Russian] Water under the bridge.
Anatoly Knyazev : I like this one already.
Oliver Queen : I was surprised to learn that you were in Russia. I thought the Maldives would be permanent.
Anatoly Knyazev : Oh, with Diaz dead, so reason to stay away.
Oliver Queen : You got bored.
Anatoly Knyazev : I miss Borscht. So I reinvent myself. Bar owner. But I got inspired, too. I got real good recipe for Piña colada. You should try. It's delicious.

Anatoly Knyazev : [sarcastic] Nice to see this one's still charmer.

Laurel Lance : You got a problem?
Anatoly Knyazev : Nyet. Oliver seems to think you're a hero now. I'm not so sure. I think you may be like snow leopard who cannot change spots.
Laurel Lance : You changed yours.
-
Laurel Lance : It would suck to be that door.
Mia Smoak : If you're here to give me a pep talk or whatever, just don't.

Mia Smoak : It smells like cabbage.

General Alexi Burov : I abandoned this pulse wave generator project. Too unpredictable, bad business. So why should I give to you, kapiushon?
Anatoly Knyazev : Maybe you should've kept your secret identity secret?
Laurel Lance : So this means that you won't be giving us the plans willingly.
General Alexi Burov : No need for unpleasantness. I am willing to make deal.
Oliver Queen : Okay. What do you want?
General Alexi Burov : A fighter. Someone to, uh... upset the favorite so I can not be bored. Should be easy for you, kapiushon, no?
Oliver Queen : So I win, and then you give us the plans.
[Burov nods]
Oliver Queen : Done deal.
General Alexi Burov : Excellent. I will go make it so.
Laurel Lance : You saw that goliath, right? He is twice your size.
Oliver Queen : So I give him half a chance.

Lyla Michaels : Oliver's going to Russia to retrieve plans to build a weapon. You need to get them first.

Laurel Lance : Well, whatever the Monitor offered you must be really something for you to be able to betray everyone that you care about.
Lyla Michaels : I am doing this for them, to protect them. Are you going to help me?
Laurel Lance : Yeah. I will.
Lyla Michaels : Contact me when it's done.
Laurel Lance : And here I thought I was supposed to be the bad guy.
-
Lyla Michaels : Mar Novu is trying to save worlds, not destroy them.
Laurel Lance : All that stuff about grief, you pretending like you were trying to help me. I should've known better.
Lyla Michaels : I wasn't pretending.
Laurel Lance : It's a little hard to believe, Lyla, after all the lying.
Lyla Michaels : It doesn't matter what you believe. You're here just the same as I am. Now, do you want to get your Earth back or not?
Laurel Lance : What does he want me to do?
-
Anatoly Knyazev : I have classic bad news/good news. I find General Burov.
William Clayton : Is that the bad news? I'm confused about the order.
Anatoly Knyazev : The bad news is, is he is man who likes betting and blood, which means only one place to find him, Krovavaya Banya.
William Clayton : "The Bloodbath."
Laurel Lance : Oh, heh. Doesn't that sound lovely?
Oliver Queen : It's not lovely. It's a fight club.
William Clayton : [indicating Mia] Oh. That sounds like where I met her.
-
Laurel Lance : Did you talk to John?
Oliver Queen : I did. He got the plutonium with an assist from Roy.
William Clayton : All we have to do is whip up an energy wave to destroy an all-knowing space being. Easy.
Oliver Queen : Before that, I would like to propose a toast to Mia and Willliam. Couldn't have done this without you.
William Clayton : Vashe zdorovie.
Oliver Queen : Actually, here we say "prochnost".
Mia Smoak : Prochnost?
Anatoly Knyazev : Prochnost. It means strength.
Oliver Queen : It means a lot more than that.
-
William Clayton : Got it. CCTV footage of Mia and dad being taken into a warehouse on the east side of town.
Laurel Lance : Thank you, illegal Russian satellites.
Anatoly Knyazev : Great. Well, let's go save day.
-
William Clayton : Okay, what are the chances that my father and sister are in the clutches of the Russian mob but aren't already dead?
Anatoly Knyazev : Slim, and getting slimmer every second we do not find them.
William Clayton : Okay, their phones aren't online. Why aren't their phones online?
Anatoly Knyazev : Will have been destroyed, so as not to trace them.
Laurel Lance : Aren't the people in your family constantly injecting each other with tracking devices?
William Clayton : Normally, I would say "God, I hope not", but now I guess I see the advantages. Have you ever hacked a CCTV camera?
Laurel Lance : No.
William Clayton : [giving her his tablet] Well, congratulations. You're about to learn the only upside of a Russian surveillance state.
-
Laurel Lance : So you're actually going home.
Mia Smoak : Why wouldn't I? Dad doesn't want me here.
Laurel Lance : Oh, god. I can't stand pity parties.
Mia Smoak : Easy for you to say.
Laurel Lance : And why is that?
Mia Smoak : You're the Black Canary. All I've ever heard are stories about how great you are. In the future, you even save me once like it was nothing.
Laurel Lance : Are you sure that's actually me you're talking about?
Mia Smoak : Okay, you can cut the false modesty. Some people are cut out to be heroes, others not so much.
Laurel Lance : Is this really all because you didn't ring some stupid bell?
Mia Smoak : Well, I couldn't save Zoe, either. Every time I try and live up to my dad, or to prove that... that I can do what it is you all do, I... I fail.
Laurel Lance : Do you think your father is any better? If you're trying to live up to us, don't. We are just as flawed as anyone, especially me. All you can do is live up to yourself.
Mia Smoak : What does that even mean?
Laurel Lance : Are you really the type of person that just gives up?

Anatoly Knyazev : Oleg is selling drive during Bloodbath tonight.
Laurel Lance : And how are we supposed to get in? They know our faces.
Oliver Queen : Right. We use that to our advantage.
[to Mia]
Oliver Queen : You and I are going in the ring together as a team.
[to William]
Oliver Queen : You would be helping us get in.
Anatoly Knyazev : [giving him a business suit] Sorry. I did not have time to get it dry cleaned.
William Clayton : I'm really more of a behind the screen kind of guy. But wow. That is a nice suit. Huh.
Laurel Lance : What exactly will I Anatoly and I be doing while you two are playing father/daughter fight club moment?
Oliver Queen : When Oleg realizes that it's the two of us in the ring, that'll cause a distraction. You guys go and steal the drive. What do you say?
William Clayton : Well, I'm in. Fancy rich guy is the role I was born to play.
Oliver Queen : You?
Mia Smoak : Why the hell not?
Oliver Queen : Suit up.
-
Mia Smoak : You shouldn't have told them what was on the drive.
Oliver Queen : They would've killed you if I didn't.
Mia Smoak : Or we would've been able to escape without you giving up the information.
Oliver Queen : Mia.
Laurel Lance : Okay, can we please just save the family squabbling 'til after we have the plans?
William Clayton : Oleg's bound to figure out how much they're worth.
Anatoly Knyazev : Well, he's smart businessman. He will figure out way to sell it.
Oliver Queen : We need to figure out when and where the sale is happening, and then we go recover the drive.
Mia Smoak : Let me guess. Me and William get to stay at the bar, right?
Oliver Queen : You're going home, both of you.
Mia Smoak : No.
Laurel Lance : I have a feeling there's less drama out here.
Anatoly Knyazev : [they turn to leave] Yeah.
-
Laurel Lance : What the hell are you doing here?
Lyla Michaels : Our mutual friend sent me.
Laurel Lance : You're working with the Monitor. Why?
Lyla Michaels : It's complicated.
Laurel Lance : Really? Because he destroyed my entire Earth. That seems pretty straightforward to me.
-
Anatoly Knyazev : Oh, Laurel, there's something I want to say.
Laurel Lance : What? One last hilarious Russian joke for the road?
Anatoly Knyazev : Sorry to doubt you. I guess leopard really can change spots. Or in your case, bird, feather.
Laurel Lance : I thought you said you weren't sentimental.
Anatoly Knyazev : Maybe I change, too, like you.
-
William Clayton : Anatoly, you guys set?
Anatoly Knyazev : Da. But no sign of high rollers. Now is good time to strike.
Laurel Lance : How much time do we have?
William Clayton : Five minutes, give or take.
Mia Smoak : Well, this is gonna be fun.
Oliver Queen : I've seen what you can do in there, so just trust your instincts, okay? I do.
